J2SE CBS Message Connection Implementation

Implementation classes for the CBS Message Connection layered on a DatagramPacket low level transport.

A single class is shared by the J2ME client and the J2SE service to allow formatted messages to be transmitted across platforms.

com.sun.midp.io.j2me.cbs.CBSPacket provides the interfaces to get/set fielded data packed into a binary datagram message.

Configuration File

Properties can be set in a configuration file called "connections.prop" in the current working directory to override the built-in default values. Such values include the phone number of the device and the input/output port numbers for receiving datagrams, respectively. A phone number may also configured in order to identify the address of the "device.".

These are the default CBS configurations in connections.prop:

#
# The datagram host is the name of the client or /target device. Messages are
# sent to and/or received from this client. The host can be an alias that maps
# in /etc/hosts (UNIX/Linux systems) to a a real client device name. The alias
# can also be mapped to the IP address of the device under test.
#
DatagramHost=wmadatagramhost
#
# The phone number starts with "+" and is followed by a number of digits
# (e.g.: +5551234). The phone number represents the number of a device that
# would contact the MIDP code under test. The phone number is the same across
# all protocols.
#
PhoneNumber=+5551234

#
# CBS properties -- These properties are used by CBSMessageConnector.
#
# The "out" port is used for broadcasting CBS messages. The CBS client can only
# receive the messages sent by the host. The port represents a physical
# transport-layer port number and may not match a port number of a CBS address.
